The Scholar's Challenge

Meer over het boek

Set in the third century, the narrative explores the challenges faced by Christians under Roman persecution, where refusal to sacrifice to Roman gods led to severe consequences. Despite this, the Church flourished, embodying Tertullian's assertion that martyrdom fueled its growth. However, internal conflicts, including varying interpretations of God's nature, differing apostolic traditions, and inconsistencies in Holy Scriptures, posed significant threats to the unity and identity of early Christianity.
